The guy from Dearborn Missouri who won the powerball picked his numbers based on old royals jersey numbers. He won $290,000,000.
#5 George Brett
#23 Mark Gubicza
#16 Bo Jackson
#22 Dennis Leonard
#29 Dan Quisenberry
#6 Willie Wilson

Now if that isn't a reason to love the Royals nothing is.

EDIT: Apparently the man who won didn't win after all. His wife won and she has confirmed that the numbers were quick pick and in fact not the numbers of Royals greats. So much for a good season of luck.

Now that is one cool story!

Super cool story. Thank you for sharing.

wow what an amazing story! Cheers to that guy

for 290,000,000 he can own the royals.

If D had one you better believe he'd have bought someone some cases. Too bad I don't know the guy. I think I heard his whole town only had like 500 people in it. I say he gives each $4,000,000 and calls it a day.

Personally I'd rather see 290 people win a million bucks than one person win $290,000,000.
